National Strategy to Restore Endangered Species: ‘Wildlife Society’ Releases 10 Arabian Oryx into Al Zulfi National Park
The National Center for Wildlife Development, in collaboration with Al Zulfi National Park, has initiated a project aimed at reintroducing and protecting endangered Arabian oryx species within the park. This endeavor is part of a larger national strategy to restore balance in natural environments and preserve local species facing extinction.
By releasing these oryx species into the park, the goal is to enhance biodiversity, boost tourism attractiveness, and support environmental sustainability efforts. National parks serve as safe corridors to connect protected areas, allowing wildlife to move freely within their natural habitat.
Dr. Mohammed Qurban, the CEO of the National Center for Wildlife Development, emphasized that releasing these species contributes to environmental sustainability, maintaining thriving ecosystems, and enriching biodiversity. This initiative is based on comprehensive scientific studies on biodiversity, enabling the assessment of its environmental impact in the short and long term.
These efforts not only enhance eco-tourism in the Kingdom but also create new sustainable economic opportunities, maximizing the environmental sector’s impact on social and economic development. The center’s advanced research facilities are among the world’s leading in the field of endangered species’ propagation and resettlement, meeting the highest international standards.
The center conducts specialized research on suitable environmental conditions for wildlife, monitoring biodiversity in protected areas using advanced techniques for tracking and analyzing data. This data-driven approach is crucial for making informed decisions to protect wildlife.
Since its establishment, the National Center for Wildlife Development has been implementing strategic plans to protect wildlife, restore ecosystems, and enhance sustainability. The center aims to become a global leader in reintegrating endangered species into their natural habitats using the latest technologies and specialized scientific research.
